Yes. I have W7 Ultimate x64. But I already found a solution to this problem. Run DXSETUP.exe from Steam\steamapps\common\IL-2 Sturmovik Cliffs of Dover\redist\DirectX and it replace new "DirectX 11" files for original CoD DX. And all will be ok! (help for Valec too, because I cannt fly on ATAG without Valec )

Windows platform update. Don't get!

Yesterday I got a new update for my windows 7 64 bit(Windows platform update) and after that I couldn't get into my game due to crashes. Drock got on TS shortly after and was having the same problem. After a bit I remembered the update and asked Drock if he also updated his Windows with the platform update, he did. So we both did a system restore and the problem was fixed. I was just online with 71_AH-Bader and he had the same problem. So I asked him if he downloaded the latest platform update and he said he did too. So if your having problems with crashes and you got the update just click on your start button type in system restore in the search box and restore the last update. Problem should be solved after that. Okay I guess there is a fix just read the post below I didn not see it before I wrote this post

Haven't had problems playing CLoD since windows update last night but sweetfx stopped working and so did fraps in CLoD. Tried reinstalling sweetfx and fraps... nothing, tried verify CLoD through steam... nothing.... saw this thread and did windows restore point and it fixed everything - cheers!

Re: Windows 7 Update KB2670838 bugzzz...

Hi guys,

I had the same problem but instead of doing a restore I just uninstalled the update through the Control Panel. Then, for good measure, I followed JTDawg's instructions in this thread.

The "redist" folder in the Steam Cliffs folder has both the .NET Framework 4 and the DXSETUP executables in it. I already have .NET Framework 4.5 so the first part cancelled itself and I followed the Control Panel route in this thread. Still worked like a treat, though. I had four "launcher" crashes after only a few minutes each join, and after the above, none for two hours.

Didn't keep me alive through every sortie, but at least I was there to try again .

Re: Windows 7 Update KB2670838 bugzzz...

- Fixed counter not appearing in Aero desktop (DWM) and DX10 games after latest Windows Update

also if your running it in NVIDIA and having issues then redist folder run all the tools in there.

Sorry Mastiff, just saw your post and I'm AFK. I'm running Win7 64-bit (can't remember which one offhand -- home version, I guess). I can't remember if I upgraded to the latest I.E. but will check this as well when I get home).

Re: Windows 7 Update KB2670838 bugzzz...

Despite applying the fixes above, I continued to get screen freezes/launcher crashes about 20 minutes into the game. Right about as things would be getting interesting!

I finally gave up fighting it and simply uninstalled this update -- problem solved completely. If it weren't for the forum posts here, though, I doubt I would've figured out the update problem on my own.

Re: Windows 7 Update KB2670838 bugzzz...

Weird but i could play a while with the update without crash until Storm of war mission lasst Sunday! Now launcher crashes at start and nothing seems to help no even removing the update! Must be some other update that cause my problems! aarrrgh

Re: Windows 7 Update KB2670838 bugzzz...

S!

Got the Launcher.exe crashing too after this update came along Gonna try the fixes posted here if it helps. Strangely CoD is the only game getting problems with it, other games like War Thunder, EVE Online, MechWarrior Online etc. have no problemos whatsoever. Strange. Maybe CoD just is so picky
